To A Poet Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And you said, "Don't give me nothing you don't want to loose." I said, "Darlin', I'd give you everything I got, if I want, I'm to choose." Then I got on a plane and flew far away from you. Though unwillingly I left and it was so, so hard to do.

The streets here at home have rapidly filled up with the whitest of snow. And they don't make no excuse for themselves and there's no need I know.

[Chorus]
Though I miss you more than I can take and I will surely break. And every morning that I wake up there is the sake, but there's nothing more to it, I just get through it. Ah, there's nothing more to it, I just get through it.

[Verse 2]
It always takes by surprise how dark it gets this time of year. And how apparent it all becomes that you're not close, not even near. No matter how many times I tell myself I have to be sincere, I have a hard time standing up and facing those fears.

But Frank put it best when he said, "You can't plan on the part." Those words keep me on my feet when I think I might just fall apart.

[Chorus]
Though I miss you more than I can take and I will surely break. And every morning that I wake up there is the sake, but there's nothing more to it, I just get through it. Ah, there's nothing more to it, I just get through it. Ah, there's nothing more to it, I just get through it.

And so I ask, "Where are you now just when I needed you?" I won't ask again because I know there's nothing we can do. Not now darlin', you know it's true.
